MANILA, Philippines – Natiyak ang access sa abot-kaya, mas mabilis, at maaasahang serbisyo sa internet kasunod ng paglagda sa Implementing Rules and Regulations (IRR) ng Konektadong Pinoy (KP) Act o Republic Act 12234.
Ang IRR ay nilagdaan noong Miyerkules ni Department of Economy, Planning, and Development (DEPDev) Secretary Arsenio Balisacan, Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT) Secretary Henry Aguda, Philippine Competition Commission (PCC) Executive Director Kenneth Tanate at abogadong si Alfred Francis Gallegos mula sa National Telecommunications Commission (NTC), sinabi ng DEPDev sa isang press release nitong Biyernes.
Magkakabisa ito 15 araw sa kalendaryo pagkatapos mailathala, sinabi nito.
Ayon sa DEPDev “IRR establishes performance standards and cybersecurity safeguards to ensure that internet services are not only accessible but also safe and dependable.”
Ayon pa dito “smaller and community-based providers will also benefit from simplified registration and streamlined processes, making it easier for them to bring connectivity to areas that have long been underserved.”
Ang KP Act ay naaayon sa gawaing pagtataguyod ng patakaran ng DEPDev, kasama ang 2024 Policy Note on Open Access in Data Transmission. RNT/MND
